Limassol International Marathon GSO 2012

Cyprus : Limassol International Marathon GSO 2012

The course of the Limassol International Marathon GSO is of a low degree of difficulty. It is essentially a flat race with its unique characteristic being the long straight lines, and the greatest part of the marathon taking place along the coastal road of greater Limassol.

The Start of the Race is on the seafront of the Limassol city, Molos area (the promenade).

The athletes head east towards ancient Amathus, a coastal route via the municipalities of Limassol, Agios Athanasios and Germasogia. The route is almost entirely straight with no bends.

At the 8th km athletes will enter the area of Agios Tychonas which begins with a downhill run and reaches an altitude of 10 meters at km-9, where they meet a few inclines & a down-hill area until Km-10.

It follows one big straight line with the altitude reaching 18 meters up to the point of inversion 180 degrees in the Km-12 where they find the municipality of Saint Tihonas, changing direction from easterly to westerly taking the route of return on the other side of the coastal street, beginning with a light incline directing to the centre of Lemesos with plenty of big straight lines.

Following the direction to the centre, athletes will pass the starting point on 28th October Avenue heading towards the historical centre of Lemesos, almost at sea level, without any altitude differences.

In Km-25 we will take the direction towards the new harbor and will arrive there in the Km-30 passing from Christodoulou Hadjipavlou Street, Spiros Araouzou Street, Constitution, Xhelal Bajar, and Franklin Roosevelt Avenue (which is the palm tree lined road).

Approximately near the New Harbor we will then take the direction towards the historical centre again, and guided to the finish line.
